Every time I see a picture of your car, I want to have mine painted white

Love the Enfield.
So rods, studs and oil pump only?

plus a new clutch -gtx turbo -full 3" exhaust -downpipe -manifold and ecu and injectors. that about covers it.

Nice one. Should be a rocketship, I understand why you were asking about tyres now.

I ended up buying a set of bridgestone 003's to hopefully handle it and they are fitted on the car now. they were a good deal for $510 in the 15" for the buy 4 and pay for 3 deal. - or I thought so.
I really have not dríven with them on as the daughter dropped the car off to dann. no use asking her-she wouldn't know but in a bit over a months time I should have a pretty good idea

[billybunter]

as of now

After I get my car back from Dann's and my Trip to the Centre of Oz is over - I will require a new project By then the bird breeding season will be over so I will have a spare couple of weeks. About 8 years or more when I painted this MGF I thought afterwards i'd do a better job on the SE but after the jon was complete and cars side by side -Not so! Well I could re-paint the SE again but not at the moment.

A few weeks ago I purchased what I thought was a pretty good and cheap spray gun from supercheap autos and after using it on another job for the price - I think its a great gun - How Good?

Well I think it's good enough for me to rub out this A1 paint job on this Z3 and re-paint it WHITE! LOL Well that's what I am thinking LOL It's a 6 pot 2.2 manual so it's a better unit to start on than nothing. Red lead interior - this would suite the white exterior with the 18" rims I think on 245 rears perfectly and it once had the extended leather interior inserts on the dash pods etc but like all bmw z3 or most these had lifted slightly - so I cut them out and re-sprayed the whole dash area BURGANDY Nice match too

Would I recommend you to go out and buy a Z3 - No don't be stupid -wake up to yourself I've had 4 of them they are junk -posers cars.. AHHHHH! that's why we buy them...LOL

my motor is back together and now sitting snug in the engine bay and just about ready to get its first good run on the dyno - this could be interesting as lokiel would say MOW POWAR COMING SOON !!!!! or something like that

"MOAR POWA!" is the war cry

Looking forward to seeing results and hearing your thoughts on the upgrade.

[billybunter]

yeah I knew I got your war cry wrong!...

now onto another matter. in a couple of months time who would like to see me butcher that bmw z3 with a white paint job from that $50 super cheap air gun I bought about a month ago. plus I might buy a veilside body kit or something like that with a rear wing and toss it on too I think I can have that bit of European crap looking a lot better than it does now.......and I think I will tell the same story when I hit the z3 forum the certainly hate it when I tell them how good mx5's are...

now I know it's not a quality Japanese car but its better than say a MGF

now I am not asking for big numbers to show interest in the re-paint but would prefer say at least ONE PERSON TWO WOULD BE GREAT!

[JBT]

I'd like to see you paint it.

[bruce]

Bunter, what do u think of the z3m breadvan?

[KevGoat]

Interested to see how it turns out! A classic combination, white with red interior.
